It’s true, you are on a mission to find the perfect girlfriend. Let’s not waste any time and get right to the core. First, you’ll need to build your confidence. It’s your secret weapon. It is your secret weapon. Read more now on winning someone’s heart.

Be Yourself – But Better

This is probably something you’ve heard before. “Just be yourself.” This is good advice. But let’s make it more interesting: be your very best. Do what you love. Let your interests shine, whether you are playing guitar or in the cooking kitchen. You’ll feel confident when you do what you love.

Dress the Part

Imagine going on an interview while wearing pajamas. The same is true for dating. Put some effort in your appearance, even if you don’t have to dress up like James Bond. Cleaning your clothes, practicing good hygiene, maybe adding a bit of cologne, can all make a difference.

Master Small Talk

Sometimes it’s difficult to begin a conversation. Here’s a hint: Ask open-ended questions. They can’t only be answered “yes”/”no.” Instead of asking whether she likes music, which is obvious, you can ask what kind and why. This allows for a more in-depth conversation.

Listen More Than You Say

It’s not by accident that we have two ears, and only one mouth! Show a genuine interest in the things she says. Show genuine interest in what she says. You are showing her that your opinion is important.

Humor, Your Best Friend

The best way to start a conversation is with a good laugh. You don’t need to force jokes. Just let them naturally flow into the conversation. The use of self-deprecating humour can be very effective. It shows humility, and it makes you seem more relatable.

Plan Fun Dates

Dinner dates are a great option, but can get stale pretty quickly. Think outside the square! You can go for a stroll, visit a gallery or even try that quirky cafe in downtown which has board games all over. Sharing experiences can create lifelong memories.

Respect each other

This should go without saying but respect is paramount in any relationship-building process. Respect her privacy by not being overly close; respect her boundaries and her feelings by not pushing uncomfortable topics.

Stay Positive

It’s not good to be a pessimistic Nancy or Negative Nancy! Keep your initial conversations light-hearted. Save the more serious topics for when you have established a rapport.

Show Genuine Interest

Engage yourself in her conversation. Ask questions to follow up on her answers. This shows that you have been paying attention.

Patience, the Key to Success

Rome was never built in one day, and the same goes for meaningful relationships. It’s better to take things slowly than rush into romance as soon as you meet someone.

I can tell you an anecdote. Once I knew someone who was so in love with a woman that he texted every hour, on the dot, from the very first day. They never went beyond date number two, as he was more interested in being desperate than genuinely interested.

You can take cues by observing her non-verbal and verbal responses before making any grand gestures.

Don’t forget: dating isn’t rocket science, though at times it can feel like solving Rubik’s puzzles with blindfolds…and mittens…but don’t worry! These tips will help you navigate through the process.

So grab life with both hands & win that heart.
